Shollei said political support changes over time and that parties must continue building new alliances across the country to remain competitive.
She noted that although Mount Kenya has been an important support base for the ruling party, there are opportunities to increase support in other regions where the party has previously had limited influence.
According to Shollei, the growing cooperation between different political groups has created an opportunity for UDA to expand its reach beyond its traditional areas of support.
She said the party is focused on delivering its agenda to Kenyans while seeking support from communities across the country.
The remarks come amid increased political activities ahead of the 2027 General Election, with parties working to strengthen their national networks.
Mount Kenya has historically played a major role in Kenyan politics due to its large voter population and influence in presidential contests.
However, recent political shifts have seen leaders seek support from regions that have previously backed rival parties.
Shollei maintained that UDA remains confident about its chances of maintaining a strong national presence despite possible changes in voter preferences.
She said the party’s strategy involves engaging more voters and highlighting government achievements as it prepares for the next election.
The comments also come as political parties continue forming alliances and expanding their grassroots structures ahead of the polls.
ODM has traditionally enjoyed strong support in regions such as Nyanza and parts of Western Kenya, while UDA has received significant backing from the Rift Valley and Mount Kenya regions.
Shollei argued that gaining support from areas previously dominated by ODM would help balance any decline in support from other regions.
She added that political parties cannot depend on one region alone and must build broad national support to succeed.
Her remarks reflect the ongoing realignment of Kenyan politics as leaders position themselves for the upcoming election contest.
With campaigns expected to intensify, parties are likely to continue seeking new partnerships and expanding their influence across the country.
